SOCIALLY AWKWARD ME!

Last year little freshmen Bailey, Autumn, Grayci, Sara, Bethani, and I were all in agreement that big SENIOR Austin Pohlen  was (and still is) the hottest thing to grace our school. He graduated and we soon forgot about him. Well he's back. With college being over all the graduates are coming home. I ran into him in the weight room and am such an idiot.

I was sick yesterday and decided not to go outside and run in the cold rain. Instead I ran around the school for 20 minutes then hit up the weight room, where I saw him. First I ran out to go and find Bailey (I'll tell you why at the end of the post), and when I couldn't find her decided I should actually work out. After a while I wound up doing plyometric box jumps, when he grabs a mat and asks
 "Mind if I do abs next you?" This is what follows:
Me-"Sure."
Him (Jokingly)-"Just don't fall on me! Haha"
Me-"Only on purpose" (A few seconds pass) "OMG!! I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT AT ALL!!!!"
Him (You can't even replicate the look he had on his face)-"Umm...Ya" (He looked so uncomfortable)
Me-"Forget I ever said anything"
Him-"I'm just not going to lay down"
END SCENE

If you know me, you'd know that when I do something on accident (ie. step on the back of your shoe) I'll say, "Oh, sorry that was on purpose". Which was what I meant, but I realized he doesn't really know me...I'm so awkward.

MEMORY LANE
Here are some fun memories that include Austin:
          I had some friends last year who were seniors and their table was by mine, so obviously I'd sit over there and talk every now and then. Well one day I sat in Austin's seat while he was off getting his lunch, though at the time I didn't know it was his seat. He came back, looked at me and sat at my table in my seat. Fedje told me I was in his seat, so I got up to leave, but he refused to leave my table! Instead he sits practically on Bailey, and starts going on about how he hopes she feels better (she was sick).  So he ate lunch with freshmen and I ate lunch with seniors. Apparently he was pissy the rest of the day.
          One day at lunch there were only three chairs at my table, forcing some of us to either split a seat or sit on the floor. Bailey was on of the ones on the floor. Austin sees and says that he'll get us chairs. He leaves for about five minutes, and when he comes back he has one chair. Which he gives to Bailey. That and the above incident got him labeled as Bailey's Best Friend.
          Prom. What I did was (according to Bailey) mean, horrible, and caused her to chase me from the Civic Center to my house, where upon catching up to me she talked me to the ground and punched me. :)
Friendship. Here's what happened; It was the night of Prom, and a bunch of us went  to watch the Grand March. Afterwards we were going around telling people we knew how pretty they looked and what not when I caught a glance of Austin up in the window thingy. I did what anyone would do. See when he walked down the aisle Bailey and I went on about how cute and attractive he was in his tux. Can you guess what happened next? Yes, I told him that she thought he looked really good in his tux and had a crush on him (we all did). She didn't think it was as funny as myself and others found it. (But he did say she was cute. Which she is!)


Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed!!

Fun?

I was invited to go to a party. By a senior. BOO-YA!! So Jake and I went. We all mat at the basketball game Side note: We won, after going into overtime and almost a second overtime! The boys  are now going on to either section finals or section quarters.  Then we all went bowling, which hurt my ankle, so that now this morning it's all in a fit. We bowled until 11pm and then went back to Sidney's house were Spencer asked Marly to prom! Aww. There was a huge banner and everything! Once things called down everyone  headed in for food, well Jake, Kali and I already had. Hehehee. How does Cathy manage to make everything taste so good? We played Dance Dance Revolution 4, messed with each other and ate food. Jake and I should never play Dance Dance. We're not the best and look awkward. The entire time I missed my "group", my close friends, the one's who know me, who I actually hang out with. I normally don't hang out with the people who were there, some of them ...

I GOT A JOB

So in my last post I talked about how I was thinking about doing a home baking thing. I went to the Armory to give Sergeant Nelson a cupcake. Side note: A couple weeks ago I had made cupcakes and brought some over for the guys but he hadn't been there that day and therefor didn't get any, which is why I brought one today since I had baked this weekend. Side-side note: They were maple pancake cupcakes with maple butter cream frosting. All homemade. He was in a meeting so I was waiting in the, I don't know, building entrance area(?) I met this woman who was waiting for a her meeting. Side note: Turns out that due to weather her meeting had been canceled and she just hadn't been told. We started talking and she told me that she was here to talk about a party for the US that she was planning for Sunday the weekend before the fourth. So we got to talking about and she was telling me about what food she was thinking of and, I kid you not, a lig...

I DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND

This is a long one. I need input. Also writing this on metaphorical paper might help me think things through. So once again, there's a boy. Which makes it sound like there have been a lot of boys but there really hasn't been....anyways... There's this boy. He's like perfect. He runs, he skis, he enjoys long hikes through the mountains, he somewhat bikes, astrophysics is a hobby of his, he enjoys laying out and looking at the stars, etc. etc. He's like the male version of me, but taller, and stronger, and not awkward, and attractive. I mean seriously he even watched the Steven Hawkins videos on Netflix, which I also watched and led to an interesting conversation. But I'm getting ahead of myself... Let's start from the beginning. So the first time I met him was at a cross country meet (the Little Falls meet, it was his first).Autumn, Sara and I were trying to do homework a little ways away from the rest of the team (and everyone else), but Will and Hans ke...
